10 Thoughts Of A College Procrastinator
Writing Cooperative

1. This is not due for a week. I can do this later and take a nap now

.

If you love naps as much as I do, then this thought is constantly running through your mind instead of all the assignments that you have piling up on your desk.

2. What would happen if I didn't do this assignment?

There is always that one assignment that you just don't want to do. Not that it's hard, you just don't feel like putting in the effort to complete the assignment.

3. What would happen if I just didn't get out of bed today?

We all have that one class that we just hate going to. This thought comes to mind every time you have to go to that class and question yourself why you're in the class to begin with.

4. I still have 3 days to complete the assignment. I have loads of time!

While you still have time for that one assignment, you have others that are due the next day that you forgot to do, so you do those in a frantic panic instead of the one that is due in 3 days.

5. I wonder what show I should watch on Netflix?

While your ever-growing pile of assignments that you have are just sitting on your desk, the main question is what show you should binge-watch to forget about the assignments.

6. It's 2 days before the assignment is due. I totally still have time to do it!

There is still plenty of time to complete this assignment. I can continue my marathon of Netflix shows.

7. Night before the assignment is due: "WHY DID I WAIT TO COMPLETE THIS ASSIGNMENT!"

Okay time to start panicking and questioning why you put the assignment off, all the while still having no motivation to complete the assignment.

8. Can I drop out now?

We all ask this question whether we are working on an assignment or are getting ready for the class that you still don't want to go to.

9. I can still pass with one late assignment, right?

As much as this comes to your mind when you are working on an assignment, try to complete the assignment on time even if you are pulling all-nighters and internally crying.

10. Stays up until 4 am: "I am never doing this again!"

Finished assignment at 4:30 in the morning with 8 cups of coffee in your system. Lesson learned: never procrastinate on assignments!


*Repeats cycle on next assignment*

Taylor Swift's Eras Tour is What I Hope Heaven Feels Like

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
